Chelsea (A) - Verdict (by Treddman)

[Tredman]

Played well, game plan worked perfectly. Undone by ref not spotting Donck getting fouled and giving a corner.

 

[Jack Regan]

Gutted not to get the three points. Definitely a shove on Donck for the corner, but we went to sleep allowed the short corner, then Rui should save it, he gets there and then misses it.

Great point though, would certainly snatched your hand off for it before kick off.

 

[Tredman]

Yeah Souness just said that, their quick corner meant we weren't quite organised in the box.

Fair result. Good performance great goal to claw back a draw but theme the breaks. Neves was the worst of the midfield but that said he was OK, a six. Mouninho Jimenez Jota worked their socks off and we defended really well as a unit.
Off to the cup now with some confidence but with a timely reminder that its never over against top sides.

 

[Boozad]

Well happy with a point, great defensive display. Chelsea weren’t brilliant but we still had to work damn hard for it. Raul MOTM.

 

[YoungWolf]

Great team performance. Neves MOTM for me. Saiss did really well in place of Bennett I thought

I think the off the ball chasing and harrowing makes us a look so solid. A real unit. Probably the value of a small squad.

Don't see that it made any difference given the ball wasn't put into the box, actually got men out to defend the short corner pretty well. Neves is the big error on that one for me, completely over commits in closing Hazard down and a player with his ability is going to take advantage of that 9 times out of 10. Still took a hell of a finish to capitalise on it but a touch of restraint from Neves and that opening doesn't come about, or it's at least a more difficult thing to attempt.

Can't argue with the draw really, Chelsea largely dominated but laboured to really threaten whilst Wolves looked mostly solid in response. Good fortune for the finish on the opening goal after some good approach play and then Chelsea finally get rewarded for sticking at it.

Neves was great today.... you had the right game on.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Can live with a point away at a top 6 team - could have held out, but Chelsea probably deserved something given the game as a whole.

Given that we are not going to mess with the top 6 or get relegated, then maybe we just need to have a bit more of a go in these games. Might well lose as a result, but it's not going t be a real issue in this season.

 

[playtheace]

If Rudgier not right in line with Rui then he saves that......he obstructed his view from an offside position?

 

[Norman Deeley]

Perfectly happy with the point. It's a point we weren't expecting and with only one shot in the whole game that's fair. I'm not even going to allocate blame for the goal. Just a rreally committed great all round defensive performance, undone by one of the best players in the world

 

[jdrodrigues]

She sells Chellsea by the sea shore. If she sells Chellsea by the shore, where does Raul score one more away goal?

Sorry, I'll show myself out.

 

[Johnny75]

Quality defensive showing with glimpses of what we can be when we move the ball.

Neves MotM for me.

 

[leedswolf]

Dreadful performance. We're all shite. FFS Costa [emoji6]

 

[Parkins left foot]

Given the game stats then we should have lost that 5 - 0

Shows thats stats mean bugger all really

 

[Jinky]

Good defensive performance & says a lot that we’re disappointed with a draw. Thought Moutinho was excellent today - he’s got some engine on him.

 

[AndyWolves]

Chelsea xG 1.05
Wolves xG 0.61

 

[The Bear]

Second away game we've conceded in injury time too. Not to complain though as we've had plenty of late goals go for us this season.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

a killer goal at the death, but am very proud of the performance and the Beeb and others are full of praise too.
